what the civil rights movement said, a double v, victory abroad and victory at home against racism and discrimination. bill: as that woman implied, juan, you can t say t that america, if you say make america great again, again, goes back to the 80s, that is a vision of the trump people, you can t do it because it was inequality in certain times. america was great. in freeing the world from hitler and tojo. however, back home, things weren t that great for minorities. but you have to put everything into perspective. and that woman doesn t. she condemns her country, and i didn t like it. good debate. i just ask you to realize that people who are blacks, latinos, given what you said about immigrants oh, come on, juan. bill: you guys continue among ourselves. we have to take a break. plenty more ahead. the factor moves along this evening. how racial politics are hurting the usa. later, watters in times square on new year s eve. what is the biggest mistake
